Moira’s car remains missing. The police are honing in on certain suspects and are otherwise trying to put together what they can out of this mystery while they continue to conduct interviews.
Filming was put on pause while they attempted to recast the role of Cora March. Some Film Crew members took the opportunity to leave the project, having others come in to take their place while they all try to recenter and refocus. At the end of June, Cora’s role was filled by local Penny Dale.
Otherwise, Locals took to the field to play ball for the Annual Softball Game in honor of Father’s Day! It was Mayfair vs. Mayweather in a tense battle where thankfully nobody was too hurt.
It’s tourist season, meaning apart from the increase of traffic due to filming taking place, Fall City is also getting their annual tourist traffic of people who want to float along the river. Since the Inn is largely full, some locals have been exploring AirBnB as an option. Are you one of them?
At the end of the month, the creepy notes begin to resurface with one being mailed directly to Rhett Wyatt.
   INDEPENDENCE DAY! As Cortney mentioned in her hiatus post, we’re going to put up volunteer spots where we can! None of the mods have time to throw something up this quickly and thought we would put it to you guys. If anyone would like to write up an IC/OOC and post it, you’re more than welcome to do so-- if you want to say that your character regularly throws something on the Fourth, great! If you want to say it’s an annual occurrence in the park, great! Should no one want to write up something formal, we can just handwave it all and say there’s a nice all-day picnic in the park followed by fireworks over a large, open space near the river. :) Let us know if you would like to take control of this!
   BASKET EVENT! As seen on Gilmore Girls as as described in the comments on our State of the Union, this is a community event wherein residents of Fall City make picnic baskets that will late be put up for auction. Winners not only receive the basket and its content, but get to share the picnic lunch with the basket maker! :) The bidders don’t learn who made the basket until they are ready to claim their prizes and head out for a picnic. The location of this event changes based on whoever chooses to run it this year. It is our goal to make this a player run plot, so    RAFAEL VALDEZ & XO VALDEZ MUNROE will work together to organize the accompanying IC/OOC (or however else you feel is appropriate to do it!). We would like for this event to take place on    JULY 14TH , with the IC/OOC being posted a couple of days beforehand as to give players plenty of time to get in there before it goes live. If you’d like to take this for your character(s), you’re welcome to assume that Basma bullied you into running it. :) How you’d like to advertise for this event is also up to you (the easiest way is probably to do something Basma-esque and update on the network so that people know what’s good and can officially start talking about it. ♥) We’ll throw up a header where you can volunteer below! Should no one volunteer, we will push this event to next month, when we’re back to our usual three mods.
   SUMMERFEST! This is a community event wherein residents of Fall City can participate in a cakewalk, a pie baking contest as well as themed games to raise money to promote individual programs that the community center handles on a yearly basis. A separate plotting post was posted on 7/6 to figure out some of the details!
   DANCE-A-THON! The 24 hour Dance-A-Thon is Basma’s FAVORITE and MAIN summer event. It’s something that’s a bit of her passion project-- her only grievance is that because she likes judging, she never gets to dance. Contestants sign up in advance, and the goal is to see who can remain standing and dancing the longest! Businesses around the town are known to close for this weekend, as most residents (including business owners) like to sign up, so think ahead of time when you’re buying your good or eating out! Last year’s champions are    WYNNIE LLEWELLYN and VOLUNTEER 002 . Basma will be announcing that this year, the Dance-A-Thon will be raising money for the Fall City Fire Department. A small portion is set aside to give to the winners, but by and large the money is given to the charity of Basma’s choice. She will be working with two volunteers,    HUGH CHRISTIAN and SHANNON ARQUETTE to help her get the word out and convince (but of course, never bribe ;) ;) ) people to enter. The event itself will run from    4 AM JULY 21 to    4 AM JULY 22
   INVESTIGATION! The investigation continues! Much of the investigation events we have planned will be on an at-your-pace basis, as we discussed in our SOTU! Tony Troy will be made Detective now that Emmett Hayes has left town. If any of you cop players have any questions about anything, as always, please feel free to e-mail us if you have any questions or concerns! The Deputy Sheriff’s Department now has all of the autopsy facts and a handful of evidence to work with-- a large focus of this month will be continuing to work on interviews. We are going to keep trying to post IC/OOCs, Flash Reactionaries, or some sort of discussion each week, so please keep a lookout for those. ♥
Since we would like to be careful not to tilt our mod-hand with Emilia, we would like to encourage other DSD characters to start discussions for at least two of these weeks through whatever medium you are comfortable with doing-- ic/ooc, flash reactionary, journal entry, whatever. :) The choice is up to you!
Sometime during the week of    JULY 08 - JULY 14 , we would like    JUNE ROGERS to lead a discussion about theories on their current suspects. Sometime during the week of    JULY 22 - JULY 28 , we would like    TONY TROY to host a meeting to discuss evidence and developments on the suspects discussed earlier in the month.

NPC WRITE OUT: TW: PEACEFUL, NON-GRAPHIC CHARACTER DEATH. CLICK ME! Eugene will be passing in his sleep on    JULY 05 . He is found the morning of when    LOCHAN MADAN comes to water his garden and finds him. His family will be coming into town to arrange for a funeral, to be held on    JULY 13 . We aren’t sure how many characters might be interested in attending this, so if anyone is interested in a small flash reactionary for that, please let us know! We will decide based on player interest. The Gas Station is to be put up for sale immediately, as his family does not live in town and cannot run it themselves. An estate sale is scheduled for later in the month. An IC/OOC will be posted for the sale on    JULY 27 .
